As a tribute to his father and the values he wished to instill in his son, Whatever it Takes is a unique, sportscaster's-eye view of those athletes who exhibit the qualities we too would wish
to instill in our sons and daughters. In today's world of superstars, celebrity athletes, and multimillion-dollar signing bonuses, Scott Murray refreshingly reminds us of the laudable legends
of sports history whom our parents praised not only for their talent but for their tact. His book proves that the tradition of the sports figure-role model has not been snuffed out and that
there are many athletes who still do "whatever it takes" to be successful in competition, the community, and life.
